File Organization
All files are organized within a shared Google Drive. Clearly labeled folders make file navigation easy and manageable for new artists and team members. Permissions are carefully managed to prevent accidental data loss.
Master Schedule

Yellow regions indicate partial crew ramp up/down. Conditional formatting makes editing the schedule a breeze.
Master Tracking List
Created to track every facet of production on a micro scale. Color coded to indicate stage of production (Green = completed tasks, Yellow = current tasks, Gray = future tasks). Meticulous conditional formatting makes expansion of tasks easy and clear to understand. Data validation used to indicate stage of assignment through a dropdown list.
